Official Title: Losing Specificity: the Role of the Locus Coeruleus in Age-related Distractibility

Brief Summary: A growing body of research has highlighted the importance of frontal regions, at both the functional and structural levels, in age-related declines in attentional and cognitive processing.However, the underlying neurobiological pathophysiological changes in the brain that contribute to these declines are still largely unclear.The objective of this proposal is to investigate neural mechanisms of age-related attentional distractibility, focusing on the neural circuit initiated from the locus coeruleus (LC).In the…
